Secretary Whitney is earnestly and
vigorously pushing forward the great
work of reconstructing the United States
Navy, this week having closed a o
tract for the construction of two steel
gunboats of l 700 tons displacement and
three steel cruisers of 1000 tons displace.
ment, at a cost not to exceed $4,500,000.
The tests ofspeed and capacity exacted
by the government from the ,Cntractors
are the severest ever imposed and afford
a sufficient guarantee that the work will
be well and faithfully performed, for the
ship builders are under heavy obliga-
tons to fulfill their contracts literally.
If the United States is soon on her feet
as a first class naval power, which we
feel safe in predicting will come to pass
sine will be more indebted to the able
administration and fine business methods
of Secretary Whitney than to any other
source for that most desirable result. We
believe that personally as well as official,
ly, none of the cabinet are more popular
than the accomplished Secretary of the
NAVY. 1850

The Rocky Fork Road.

BILLINGS, Aug. O.-[Special to the In.
dependent. 1.-The report in the Indepen.
dent that Dennis Ryan, of St. Paul, has
taken the contract to build the railroad
from the Northern Pacific to the Rocky
Fork coal fields is fully corroborated.
His contract is to have the road built by
January LIST, but is is expected that the
road will be in actual operation by the
first of December. The distance is only
forty five miles and the most difficult
part of the work is the bridging of the
Yellowstone. This done, Mr., Ryan says
he ian keep ahead of the track with a
force of graders clear to the mines, 80
easy is the grading alongthe whole route
Though Ryan does not admit it. 1t is
said by his friends that he is largely
interested in the road and that he will
ultimately be its president. The fact
that H. G. Davis, of the Northern Pa
cifc, is the present president is explained
by the fact that the Rocky Fork COM
pany has traffic arrangements with the
Northern Pacific, but the latter company
has no active interest in the coal road.
That is really controlled by Montana
people with Iowa coal men--the same
who own the cal mines. 1t is not
understood that Dennis Ryan has any
majority interest in the coal road, but
he may have in the Cooke CITY TX
tension. Mr.. Ryan is described as
taking a great interest in the Cooke City
mines. 1t is known that his brother, a
prominent mining expert, has been in
to the district several times and his
reports have been very favorable. OF
course it is a rule of mining operations
that it is cheaper to haul smelling ores
down hill than to haul the supplies up
One of the strong possibilities ls, that a
large reduction plant may be erected
on Rock Creek or the Yellowstone to
which the ores of Cooke may be hauled
and also those from saltwater district.
Nor is it too much to suppose that in due
time a railroad may be run from some
point on the Yellowstone to Castle
mountain district, and haul the mag.
nifcent smelling ores from there to such
q reduction plant. The coal at Rocky
Fork is all the best OF fuel, and some OF
the veins afford an excellent quality oil
coking coal. There is also IN abundance
of lime and iron for fiuxing in the
vicinity and a reduction plant could be
built on the Yellowstone that would be
in the centre of supplies, as we'll as con.
venient to several districts of mex
haustible ore supply. Your correspond.
ent is not making mere speculations,
but is in u position to say on reliable
information that the plan outlined
above is IN contemplation, and there
is every prospect that it will be carried

The House of Lords has "prcclaimed'
the Irish National League, as it was sup
posed they would do. As we have pre-
v%iously explained to be proclaimed"
a that the section or organization is
placed under martial law and Irishmen
living in the region or belonging to an
organization can be incarcerated on sus-
picion. without the right of trial OIL
habeas corpus. Parneil, in an inter.
view, said the action of the government
in proclaiming the league was a g%ratuiti-
GUS insult to the Irish. Considering the
present condition of Ireland, it was
merely a move to cover the weakness Of
the land bill. If the bill did not protect
the tenants from eviction, trouble would
be inevitable during the coming winter,
